About Diklah
Son of Joktan in the list of nations descended from Noah’s sons (Gn 10:27; 1 Chr 1:21); perhaps the name refers to an Arabian tribe or territory, living in or near a palm-bearing area, as the name suggests (Diklah is a variant of the Hebrew word dikla, which means date tree or palm tree).
